Steven Jyles has been placed on the 9-game injury list by Toronto.

Jyles, expected to be the Argos starting quarterback this season, was acquired in the off-season via trade from Winnipeg for Toronto's 2011 first-round draft pick and a conditional 2012 pick.

The import quarterback started 11 games for the Blue Bombers last season, appearing in 16 games total. He completed 196 passes for 2,804 yards, good for a 61.6 completion percentage. He would add 452 rushing yards.

Jyles has played over parts of five CFL seasons with Edmonton, Saskatchewan and Winnipeg, racking up a total of 3,889 passing yards and throwing 24 touchdown passes over that span.

He originally signed with Edmonton after the 2006 season after going undrafted.
